IMPORTANT
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Sensitive Electronics
ESD problems are present everywhere. ESD may damage
or weaken the electronic control assembly. The new control
assembly may appear to work well after repair is finished,
but failure may occur at a later date due to ESD stress.
Use an anti-static wrist strap. Connect wrist strap to green
ground connection point or unpainted metal in the appliance.
-OR-
Touch your finger repeatedly to a green ground connection point
or unpainted metal in the appliance.
Before removing the part from its package, touch the anti-
static bag to a green ground connection point or unpainted
metal in the appliance.
Avoid touching electronic parts or terminal contacts; handle
electronic control assembly by edges only.
When repackaging failed electronic control assembly in anti-
static bag, observe above instructions.

IAGNOSTIC GUIDE
Before servicing, check the following:
Make sure there is power at the wall outlet.
Has a household fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped? Time
delay fuse?
Are both hot and cold water faucets open and water supply
hoses unobstructed?
All tests/checks should be made with a VOM or DVM having
a sensitivity of 20,000 ohms per volt DC or greater.
Check all connections before replacing components. Look for
b
roken or loose wires, failed terminals, or wires not pressed into
connections far enough.
A potential cause of a control not functioning is corrosion on
connections. Observe connections and check for continuity
with an ohmmeter.
Connectors: Look at top of connector. Check for broken or loose
wires. Check for wires not pressed into connector far enough to
engage metal barbs.
Resistance checks must be made with power cord unplugged
from outlet, and with wiring harness or connectors disconnected.
POSSIBLE CAUSE/TEST
PROBLEM NOTE: Possible Cause/Tests must be performed in the sequence shown for each problem.
WON’T POWER UP 1. Check that the washer is plugged into a working outlet and for blown fuses.
(buttons do not respond 2. Check for power going to Central Control Unit (CCU) by listening for a click in the CCU
when pressed) when the washer is plugged in. If no click, replace the CCU.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.

6. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
7. Check the button/LED assembly by selecting different cycles and changing the modifiers
and options available to confirm that the button/LED assembly is responding.
8. Check the connection of the power cord to the line filter and at the CCU. Check to confirm
that the door closes fully.
WON’T START CYCLE 1. Open and close the door. The door must be opened between consecutive wash cycles.
2. Check the door switch/lock unit using the diagnostics. See Quick Diagnostic Test.
3. If door is locked, drain the washer.

OVERFLOW CONDITION
Overflow level has been reached, and lasts for more
than 2 seconds. In an overflow condition, the door
remains locked and the drain pump runs constantly;
after 10 minutes, door will be unlocked in order to cut
off the valves’ power. Then if overflow still occurs, start
pump again.Turn off hot and cold water faucets and
unplug the washer before servicing.
Possible Causes/Procedure
1. Check the drain hose and make sure it is not
plugged or kinked.
2. Unplug washer or disconnect power; if water still
flows into the washer, replace the water valve.
3. Check wire harness connections to the drain pump,
pressure switch, water inlet valve, and Central
Control Unit (CCU).
4. Check/clean drain pump filter of foreign objects.
5. Check for drain pump failure.
6. Check the inlet valve for proper shutoff.
7. Check the pressure switch for proper operation.
8. Remove hose from pressure switch. Dislodge
any debris buildup in the hose inside the outer tub.
Debris inside the hose will not allow the switch to
sense a pressure change.

DOOR LOCK BROKEN
OR DOOR SWITCH ERROR
It is detected that the door switch is open while the
door is locked for more than 2 seconds.
Possible Causes/Procedure
1. Push the door and verify that it is completely closed.
2. Verify CCU operation by running a Quick Diagnostic
Test or any cycle.
3. Verify that the switch contacts are stuck open. If
open and the door is closed, replace the door switch
mechanism.
SUDS LOCK (OVERDOSE OF DETERGENT
DETECTED DURING THE WASH CYCLE)
If suds are detected continuously by the pressure
switch during drain or spin, the washer will enter
Suds Detection mode.The washer will fill with 3/4
gallon (2.67 liters) of water, then rest for 10 minutes
with no tumbling. Washer will then drain. If error occurs
during spin cycle, the washer will then start spinning.
Possible Causes/Procedure
If too much detergent was used:
Run the washer through a RINSE/SPIN cycle.
Run a NORMAL cycle without adding any
detergent.This should clear the washer of the
excess detergent.
1. Check the drain hose and make sure it is not
plugged or kinked.
2. If the drain standpipe is higher than 9 feet, this can
cause pump cavitations resulting in the same failure
code.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
4. Check wire harness connections to the drain pump,
pressure switch, and Central Control Unit (CCU).
5. Check/clean drain pump filter of foreign objects.
6. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
7. Check drain pump.
8. Check the pressure switch and pressure switch
hose.
9. Verify CCU operation by running a Quick Diagnostic
Test or any cycle.

UIDE DE DIAGNOSTIC
Avant d’entreprendre une réparation, contler ce qui suit :
Vérifier que la prise de courant est alimentée.
Fusible grillé ou disjoncteur ouvert? Fusible tempori gril?
Robinets d’eau chaude et d’eau froide ouverts et tuyaux d’arrivée
d
eau exempts d’obstruction?
Utiliser pour tous les contrôles un voltmètre ou autre instrument
dont la résistance interne est de 20 000 ohms par volt CC ou plus.
Contrôler toutes les connexions avant de remplacer un
composant. Rechercher des fils bris ou mal connectés,
o
u des bornes ou cosses de connexion détériorées.
Le non-fonctionnement dun organe de commande peut être dû
à la corrosion des pces de connexion. Inspecter les connexions
et contrôler la continui avec un ohmtre.
Connecteurs : Examiner le sommet d’un connecteur; rechercher
des fils bris ou mal connectés; rechercher également des
cosses mal branchées.
Lors de toute mesure de résistance, vérifier que le cordon
d’alimentation est débranché de la prise de courant, et que
le faisceau de câblage ou le connecteur est débranché.

IMPORTANT
Circuits électroniques sensibles
aux décharges électrostatiques
Le risque de décharge électrostatique est permanent. Une
décharge électrostatique peut endommager ou affaiblir les
composants électroniques. La nouvelle carte peut donner
limpression quelle fonctionne correctement après la réparation,
mais une charge électrostatique peut lui avoir fait subir des
dommages qui provoqueront une faillance plus tard.
Utiliser un bracelet de charge électrostatique. Connecter
le bracelet à la vis verte de liaison à la terre ou sur une
surface métallique non peinte de l’appareil.
-OU-
Toucher plusieurs fois du doigt la vis verte de liaison à la terre
ou une surface métallique non peinte de l’appareil.
Avant de retirer la pce de son sachet, placer le sachet
antistatique en contact avec la vis verte de liaison à la terre
ou une surface métallique non peinte de l’appareil.
Éviter de toucher les composants électroniques ou les
broches de contact; tenir la carte de circuits électroniques
par les bords seulement lors des manipulations.
Lors du réemballage dune carte de circuits électroniques
défaillante dans le sachet antistatique, appliquer les
instructions ci-dessus.
